Aaha, You mean the button 'More Options...' under the quick editor?
I'm not sure but maybe there is a good reason for that. If not then I'd like to use Ajax or whatever if it going to be better.
So, +1.

There's no real reason to use it, actually, since pretty much everything you need is in the Quick Reply box. The only thing on that screen is the option to watch the thread, which you can also do while viewing the thread anyway.

I agree.
And because of the 'Upload a File' is now available in the editor, I think there is no need to go to the 'More Options...' Page just for the 'Preview' feature.
I think it might -possibly- be better if they replace the 'More Options...' button with the 'Preview' button. And then when clicking on the preview button the previewed post/thread will load in bluebox/lightbox/Highslide or whatever (Something similar to the Member Card).

I believe the intent is to have the software operate as easily without java script as it does with java script. You may want to turn off js and walk through the process of making a post, including formatting, attaching files and pictures. XF looks like a good design to me.

As a matter of fact Yes, I've done that. And I always do disable JS from time to time.
The way that I suggested is just like what happens when you click on the avatar if JS is disabled. I don't say why that can't be done with the 'Preview'. Unless there is something I'm now aware of.
